MY STORY
I grew up going to the beach every summer with my family, to places like Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and Gulf Shores, Alabama. I've always loved building sand castles. It's playful, creative, joyful fun in the sand. Sand castles are awesome!
So when I had a chance a few years ago to take my kids to Hawaii, I was SO excited to build sand castles with them!
And it was totally disappointing! The ONLY things available were uselessly flimsy toddler toys that broke instantly. We spent the whole week building castles with half a shovel! UGH. I wanted the "nice" ones... but there weren't any. I checked REI, Amazon, everywhere. Nothing!
For fun I tried to figure out what else would work, and how to make it portable. The next year I tried it out on our family beach trip. It was AMAZING! We spent hours and hours building sand castles and had an incredible time. PUFFERFISH was born!
We hope you have as much fun with our products as we do. Have a blast!
